    That's a good idea to move the rounds...

    Well, I got all the rounds hauled to my woods. 11 loads. An Amish kid wants to split it with his dad’s hydro. We are working on a wage scale!

    He wants to split it Saturday but we are going to the cabin.
    I cut another trailer of junk/punk oak for a buddy in town. He likes it for campfires. A $50 load:

    He splits it himself.

    We had a high of 28F here today and no snow on the ground so I walked my neighbors woods. It’s 40 acres and full of junked cars. Haven’t been in there since early December and oh my there are trees down everywhere. Counted at least a dozen oak and one black cherry. Glove on the cherry to show some girth. She’s a big girl.

    Here are just 5 oaks. I couldn’t take pics of all of them.

    He lets me cut anything on the ground. But I take care of him at Christmas and spray all his trails with Garlon 4 Ultra cuz his wife hates poison ivy. Garlon 4 absolutely smokes ivy but doesn’t kill grass.

    I’m going to be a busy beaver come March.

    Gives new meaning to hitting metal with the saw. Some nice stuff to put the saw to though.

    I stay on my toes in Robert’s woods. But the thing is, I have 8 oaks and 1 black cherry on the ground in MY woods!
    From our July 16th wind event. I should clean up my woods first but we will see.
